Rhode Island saw you coming, Stan - you’d love our tiniest state.
The only interstate going through the state, I-95, goes diagonally southwest corner to northeast corner so it makes the state feel much larger than it really is. It’s about 45 minutes Diagonally with traffic through Providence, but if you drive East/west on RT 44 it’s only 20 minutes, border to border, 30 minutes if you stop for a “Stuffie”* along the way.
*A Stuffie is a very large clam (called a Quahog (Cōe-hog)) with the clam meat removed, cooked, minced, mixed with seasoned breadcrumbs and butter and sometimes crab meat and stuffed back into the big Quahog shell. Yummy!
BTW, Little Rhody has waaaay more ocean shoreline than Big ol’ New Hampshire.
